THE Community Lot

Well maybe if you went into more detail with regards to what you are looking for exactly. :P
Quite simple, really. Blocky, Apartmenty, and made from something with MULTIPLE DOORS. Big and tall enough that I can cram a lot of sims in there without ever being troubled by clown-car-syndrome.

Maybe I'm wrong but Riverview have sort of done this already. Instead of big lots they squeezed the lots in narrow stripes and glued them all together so that it gives the impression of one only lot. Big lots normally takes too much memory. I recall that even the big park doesn't get much of visitors. Unfortunately Riverview concentrated the lots but didn't give you any more lots to populate. It looks like a concentration point and all the rest are blank spots with some small houses spread around. I like it though, it is more country side.

Hello
In Riverview I remove all the sims from the large houses where Jon Lesson lives and then plonk them in smaller houses down below. With Awes mod making them pay bills Lesson cannot afford where he lives anyway....lol. The Shallow family, the Grisbys' Wilson and Lesson himself all get rehoused. The houses get demolished.
Then you have 5 large 6x6 lots to play with. On there I have built what looks like several houses on each of these lots, like a mini estate if you will and when Indie chucks in large families which it always does I simply bung them in these large 'housing estates' and it looks pretty good.
Lots and lots of sims in an area where there were only 10. I change the Wilson ground to community and put in the pre built park thats in your park bin. Its gets nice and busy up on the hill now where it used to be boring looking and somewhat dead.
Kind regards

In Riverview there's a lot that can be changed or rezoned. There's a house built for probably a rock star. What's the point to build specific houses? Soon or later they will move out and the house will be populated by a couple with twin toddlers anyway. I tried to place the house in my standard (space for 8 sims being that at least one has to be space for baby/toddlers - cribs, potties, toys, etc.) and ended up with cribs on one enormous bedroom and single beds on the top of the store place in front of the main gate. Disaster. Lot can be merciless buldozed.

So basically a DEE-luxe apartment in the skyyyyy ala the Jeffersons?
I'm not a meshing expert but I could try. Thing is though Nanacake asked Wes about being able to do replacement rabbit hole meshes a little while back and at the time he said his utility wasn't setup to handle them but he might be adding that so I'll have to see if he did.
Back on topic for this lot, I think it's useful. I keep seeing a lot of houses people made for those funky sized lots which were for stores originally. Also there is the finite space issue as mentioned. The apartment thing would be great but still more lots means more sims you can play or visit.
